Axia Solutions, a training provider based in Stoke-on-Trent, has launched a new apprenticeship programme designed to help businesses across the region unlock hidden company potential and maximise value.
The Improvement Practitioner apprenticeship is a blend of Lean and Six Sigma skills that will teach apprentices how to identify improvement opportunities, diagnose issues, develop solutions and implement change.
By the end of the course, apprentices will be highly-skilled problem solvers who can drive the business forward, improving employee and company performance by eliminating resource and process waste.
“We know the power that investing in your workforce has in attracting and retaining staff” said Victoria Harte, Director at Axia Solutions. “Our new Improvement Practitioner programme is a great chance for businesses to invest in their team and gain the skills and tools they need in-house to release potential improvements”
Improvement Practitioners can perform in a wide variety of sectors and functions, including manufacturing, engineering, public sector, IT and finance. By embracing or sustaining a culture of continuous improvement, businesses can increase innovation, improve quality, maximise efficiencies and reduce waste.
The apprenticeship training will be delivered in the workplace, through a blend of remote and face-to-face learning. Each week the learners will have time to develop and embed the knowledge and skills they are learning in training sessions.
In the year to date, 82% of Axia’s leadership and management apprentices have gained a distinction in their End Point Assessment. The Improvement Practitioner apprenticeship sits within the Leadership and Management department at Axia.
“By choosing the apprenticeship option to train their team, companies will benefit from highly skilled trainers supporting the development of business improvement processes,” said Harte. “We want to support employers and employees through the current challenging economic times. This new course is a testament to Axia’s 25-year commitment to investing in Stoke and Staffordshire to help businesses grow.”
